A THOUGHTFUL mum of a young girl has become a social media sensation thanks to the incredible note she handed to fellow passengers on a recent flight.

The woman, who is mother to a toddler named Wendy, boarded a China Eastern Airlines flight in China and proceeded to hand out gift bags to the other passengers in first class, South China Morning Post reported.

In each passenger’s bag, the woman had packed some confectionary, ear plugs and the note, in which she apologised in advance for any crying from her young daughter during the three-hour flight.

A flight attendant was so impressed to receive a similar bag she shared a photo of the note on Chinese social media platform WeChat.

According to a translation by the South China Morning Post, the note read: “It’s not my first long-distance trip but my mum takes care of me alone and worries that I may cry and disturb you. After all, the change of air pressure in the plane will make me fret.”

The flight attendant explained in her WeChat post that the girl was very well behaved and the note turned out to be totally unnecessary.

“A child’s behaviour is totally influenced by the parents. Few mothers would care to do something like that,” she wrote.

“Their seats were clean and tidy when they got off. Usually the seats are in a mess when taken by people with kids.”
